Malta Comic Convention...

I have been invited down to the Malta Comics Convention as a guest. This is the first in what will become an annual event.

The convention will be taking place in Malta on Saturday the 31st of October and Sunday the 1st of October. So if you are attending and want a Halloween sketch, now is the perfect time to ask for one.

I will be taking along the original pencil artwork for Worlds End, so folks there can take a look at the artwork for the forthcoming graphic novel. I will also have some other things, which I will be taking along such as the Worlds End Ashcan, and a limited amount of the usual Wizards Keep merchandise, which you can find in the shop on the Wizards Keep Website, amongst some “freebie” stuff too.

The weekend looks set to be an amazing event set in the St. James Cavalier, which is an historic building converted into an arts and creativity centre. The show will have talks, movies, and there will be some gaming as well, alongside of which will be some retailers and both local and foreign artists.

The event is being organised by Wicked Comics.

If you want to get in touch to arrange to go along or for further information please contact Chris Galea via email at:

I feel very honoured to have been invited to this first event, as a guest and I am looking forward to it immensely.

Fantastic! It's been ten years since I was in Malta but I don't recall them having their own comics industry. (They imported British comics, and, presumably American ones.) Are they producing their own comics now? It's only a tiny island.

Hi Tim,I'm sure it'll be a great weekend. Valetta is a nice city to visit. If you have time to explore more of Malta the bus service is cheap and frequent (or it was 10 years ago). They use old British 1950s buses and recondition them, - although traveling can be an experience in hotter weather as the locals try to drive in the shade - in both directions!
